Echoes

C#m F#m C#m A#m A G#sus4 G# x2

C#m G#m Overhead the albatross hangs motionless upon the air

F#m G# And deep beneath the rolling waves in labyrinths of coral caves.

C#m G#m The echo of a distant time comes willowing across the sand

F#m G# And everything is green and submarine

C# G# And no-one showed us to the land and no-one knows the wheres or whys

F#m G# A But something stirs and something tries and starts to climb towards the light

C#m A C#m A C#m A E B C

C#m G#m Strangers passing in the street by chance two separate glances meet

F#m G# And I am you and what I see is me

C#m G#m And do I take you by the hand and lead you through the land

F#m G# And help me understand the best I can

C# G# And no-one calls us to move on and no-one forces down our eyes

F#m G# A And no-one speaks and no-one tries and no-one flies around the sun

C#m G#m Cloudless everyday you fall upon my waking eyes

F#m G# Inviting and inciting me to rise

C#m G#m And through the window in the wall come streaming in on sunlight wings

F#m G# A million bright ambassadors of morning

C# G# And no-one sings me lullabies and no-one makes me close my eyes

F#m G# A So I throw the windows wide and call to you across the sky
